Seashells and Mason Jars

Sunday funday and I'm itching to start some crafts....so out comes the craft bin and I started browsing Pintrest for some ideas. Well I knew I had an abundance of shells and Mason Jars with some burlap so here's what I came up with...

Some hot glue, assorted shells, burlap ribbon with wire, and white ribbon (any color will do). Grab a mason jar and start gluing the shells to the jar to fit any open spaces. Once you are happy with the placement of shells, let the glue dry for a minute. Then measure the top of your jar and cut the burlap ribbon to fit. Glue this to the top of the month of the jar. Next make a simple bow with your white ribbon and glue this to the burlap on the top of the jar.

Once completed use for storage, in your bathroom, or as a candle holder. I found a spot for mine in the bathroom holding my brushes and combs. Happy crafting y'all! :-)
